Now…is this legal to show in public or not?
Now…is this legal to show in public or not?
I had a 3 day paddling adventure planned but a partner with the sniffles and way more rain than called for had other ideas. Now it’s VR, sewing, make soup and a shorter day trip when it clears up on Sunday.
Do they count audiobooks? Is it about consuming the content of the book or the delivery system?
None of these policies address that life is too expensive and difficult for people now for them to think about having kids…telling struggling people things will only get half as worse once they have children isn’t motivating anybody.
From my therapist: In the absence of a crystal ball the best predictor of someone’s future behavior is their past behavior.
When google asked if I wanted to try Gemini I gave it a try and the first time I asked it to navigate home, something I use assistant for almost daily, it said it can’t access this feature but we can chat about navigating home instead - fuck that!
Even though I switched back to assistant it’s still getting dumber and losing functionality - yesterday is asked it to add something to my grocery list(in keep) and it put it on the wrong list, told me the list I wanted doesn’t exist, then asked if I wanted to create the list and then told me it can’t create it because it already exists.
I’ve talk to more logical toddlers!
The first wedding I ever attended was my own…and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn’t get or were already married my entire life.
Still never been to a birth or a funeral.
It’s okay to be curious about the world - wanting to understand is not the same thing as wanting to judge or prevent.
Friends girlfriend lent me her hiking shoes when I picked him up to go hiking having forgotten mine.
Payment was down at a hardware store and the manager just let me walk out with the $7 of screws I needed to finish my project that day
I’ve never tried to have what I would call a conversation, but I use it as a tool for both fixing/improving writing and for writing basic scripts in autohotkey, which it’s fairly good at.
It’s language models are good for removing the emotional work from customer service - either giving bad news in a very detached professional way or being polite and professional when what I want is to call someone a fartknocker.
You can 3D print containers that fit all kind of juice/pop/milk lids. They can be any height, but my favorite are the ones that nest almost perfectly inside giving you one bottlecap worth of storage (perfect for pills or sim/sd cards).
I’ve had my printer for 6 months and still get a kick out of this.
I would be happy for it to switch places with Chartreuse, which feels strongly like a red word and is definitely not a bright yellow-green
One that bugs me a lot that I noticed just in the last 5 years or so is over pronouncing the T in words like celebrity and community - yes it’s spelled with a T but it’s not fully voiced like you’re saying the word Tea. I noticed it first on YouTube and now in some audiobooks and even the occasional coworker.
“outlaws” also being a verb makes this title difficult to understand
I just finished reading “The Anxious Generation” by Jonathan Haidt on how hard it is for parents to police kids self-destructive phone use and tech companies aren’t willing to do anything to help because it’s so profitable to advertise to them and sell their data, this feels like another step down that road.
I’m amused there’s a GMC model called the “Terrain”, not all terrain or off road or anything, just “this vehicle drives on surfaces”
When I think of growing up female again, but in the current time, it sounds terrible, but then I think of growing up male inbhe current times and it seems awful too, so I think I have to tick the “neither box” and accept I’m too old for this modern shit in any gender form.
Comparing things of dissimilar proportions is confusing?
A sofa height turtle, sofa width turtle and sofa length turtle are all different things!
I think people’s looks and personality correspond in a few different ways.
One is that people’s choices for style and personal care reflect their personality, so having fancy clothes indicate a person who cares enough about looks to put in the effort.
People also can choose to associate themselves visually with different groups, and if they identify with that group they likely have similar values, including those around personality.
Even things someone can’t control, such as height, probably affect their personality because it changes the way others interact with them in society.
I have a huge number of content filters, basically stopping just short of blocking the words “left” and “right” but trying to block everything else political.
What I wish I could find a way to do is pick by post language - I have nothing against a user/community, I just don’t speak (usually) German.
